A plurality of cleaning portion recesses (14) which penetrate a cleaning soft portion (21) and form recesses (14a) in a core base portion (12) are formed on each of a first side portion and a second side portion of a cleaning portion (2) at an interval in an axial direction of a cleaning soft portion (21), and at least one of the plurality of cleaning portion recesses (14) is formed so that an opening of the core base portion recess formed in the core base portion has a shape elongated in the axial direction of the cleaning portion.

An oral care implement including a handle and a head. The oral care implement may be formed entirely out of a resilient or flexible material. The head may include a base structure and a monolithic cleaning unit. The monolithic cleaning unit may include a block portion extending from a front surface of the base structure and a plurality of protuberances extending from a distal end of the block portion. The block portion may have a greater height than the protuberances. The protuberances may include central protuberances that extend from a distal surface of the block portion and peripheral protuberances that surround the block portion and extend from the front surface of the base structure. The monolithic cleaning unit may include ribs extending between adjacently positioned protuberances. The oral care implement may be suitable for babies.

A brush includes a core wire section having a proximal end and a distal end and a plurality of discs received on the core wire section, the plurality of discs defining a brush head. The brush head is shaped by at least one of trimming the plurality of discs of the brush head and/or bending a portion of the core wire section.

A method of manufacturing a brush includes providing a core wire section having a proximal end and a distal end, and an integral tip on the distal end, forming a bristle element having a throughbore, and inserting the core wire section into the throughbore until the bristle element is received on the core wire section.

The present invention is concerned with a hair brush. The hair brush has an elongate profile defining a first longitudinal axis, and has a handle portion in the form of a stick sharing the first longitudinal axis and provided with a proximal end and an distal end, and the hair brush further has a utility portion extending from the distal end of the handle portion for engaging the hair and the scalp of a user during use. The utility portion has a first floating finger and a second floating finger forking off from the distal end of the handle portion and arranged at opposite lateral ends of thereof, and at least one third floating finger arranged between the first and second floating fingers. At least one or both the first and second floating fingers are free of brushing members.

The present wire brush is adapted to clean a grill grate and basically comprises and outer housing, a grate-engaging flange, a flexible bristle-receiving retainer and a plurality of wire bristles. The outer housing has upper and lower portions. The grate-engaging flange extends from the lower portion of the housing in generally perpendicular relation thereto. The flexible retainer is disposed in the upper portion of the housing. The bristles have upper portions embedded in the retainer and grate-engaging free ends that extend no more than one-half inch beyond the grate-engaging flange.

A flexible composite torsion shaft for attachment to a drive shaft includes an elongated core element having a circular cross section. A reinforcement comprising at least one polymer layer and multiple layers of reinforcing-fiber wound around the core element inside the at least one polymer layer. Each reinforcing-fiber layer is wound around the core element at a winding angle in a range of 40 to the hoop winding angle, depending on a width of a reinforcing-fiber being wound, relative to a longitudinal direction of the core element. At least one reinforcing-fiber-layer is wound at an opposite angle from another reinforcing-fiber layer inside the at least one polymer layer. The winding angle increases as an average layer diameter of reinforcing-fiber insider the at least one polymer layer increases.

A pet entertainment and grooming system is a set of bristles, wires or similar prickly arrangements attached to a body and anchored to provide a cat or other animal the opportunity to scratch, brush or otherwise stimulate the skin or fur. The system could be attached to a wall, an article of furniture or some other hard location or it could remain free-floating and be moved about by the cat. The system could also be used by people.
